Primary Identifier | MGI:1924001 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 8 | NCBI Gene Number | 109151 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.1.0) Predicted to enable several functions, including ATP binding activity; ATP-dependent chromatin remodeler activity; and helicase activity. Predicted to act upstream of or within chromatin organization. Predicted to be located in cytosol and nucleoplasm. Is expressed in bone; endochondral bone; and periosteum. Orthologous to human CHD9 (chromodomain helicase DNA binding protein 9). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for null mutations are viable and fertile, although growing oocytes exhibit a less loosened chromatin structure. [provided by MGI curators] |
